So i need add my new body modle data to jg2e04_00_00.pp body.sviex
right?

[tittymaster]

So here's a question if anyone might know the answer. I've got one of the mods that replace pubic hair styles with futa attachments, except it takes up three of the four pubic hair slots for this. I was wondering if there was any way to edit this so it would only take up one slot. Any suggestions on the matter are much appreciated.

plz teach me how to use "Sviex normals"
im try lot times~~its doestnt works
always normal body~~~no ting or fat body

Right place, but wrong doing. Its not done with the normals alone. You will need to learn the part below: the "SVI[EX] Juggler".

So i need add my new body modle data to jg2e04_00_00.pp body.sviex
right?

Not necessarily. The easiest way to learn which units are required or to be created is by looking into one of the Append Sets.

Important for creating a good costume is that you will need three instances. One for each body type (not height). All three must have the same structure (same vertex order and therefore same number of vertices).

Follow the links in the last line of my signature: SVIEX and Glossary.

Is there actually a 3p mode? Quoting anon fom /aa2g/

Yes
But only for HF VIPs

So, what is hf vip, and how much it's cost.

Welp Inquisitor said there is nothing cheeky like this, but we aint trusin to a corps worshipers. （・∀・）ｙ－~~

Mods from the HF VIP section are an urban legend, a bait, a troll... in a normal way, /aa2g/ and HF have the same community, a lot of modders use both platforms...

is it not possible to get shine, like the hair, on clothing?

not the glowing gloss or 'metallic' sheen. tried matching material and hex values as the hair, but zero changes on the clothes.

Had you added a ref texture? I hadn't looked at the clothes files yet but there should be 4 slots for textures. I do know the hair uses a ref file for the shine and I'd bet you could add one to the clothes (like we used to do with the AG3 files).
